111m, 6 pitches.
Graded Diff in FRCC guide. It is a very serious proposition for a big boots mountaineering day. There are some very hard moves (much harder than Diff, nearer to Severe)
There are three good climbing pitches in between scrambling. Two of the pitches are hard to protect. Need to take a wide selection of nuts and small/medium cams. Two of the pitches have large loose blocks which must be pulled on, and then stood on. However most of the rock is excellent.
